Cao Jinbao looked at Lan Ziyi, he raised the corners of his mouth and wanted to laugh but tried hard to suppress his urge to laugh, Lan Ziyi could see that Cao Jinbao didn't bother to answer this question, but Cao Jinbao didn't laugh after all, and Lan Ziyi didn't have a good seizure. Just listen to Cao Jinbaodao:

"What will happen to the people, they should farm or farm, they should pay taxes or taxes, but if I win, there will be no further rise in prices, and the people will not be short of money, if the Beijing merchants win, all the people who use paper money now, all the finances in their hands will become worthless, and now there are few people in the world who don't use paper money."

Tao Zhutu asked puzzledly:

Money is all

兰子义 says:

"If Boss Cao is defeated, it only means that the Beijing merchants use silver to crush his banknotes, and his banknotes will become waste paper at the same time the price of silver will rise to an unimaginable height, and at that time there is not much silver in the hands of the people, all the silver is in the hands of the Beijing merchants, and the paper money in the hands of the people is worthless, so their property will undoubtedly be taken away by the Beijing merchants at a very low price."

Cao Jinbao looked at Lan Ziyi and nodded approvingly, he said:

"Wei Hou is really smart, just a little bit."

Peach Rabbit Road:

"I still don't understand."

Cao Jinbao Road;

"It's nothing, you don't need everyone to understand, it's best if you don't see that scene."

At this time, Tao Zhulu interjected and asked:

"The premise of the Beijing merchants taking away the people's property at a high price is that the people trade with silver, as long as the people don't use the silver at that time, they will get it."

Cao Jinbao shook his head and smiled bitterly when he heard this;

"What do you use without silver? Bartering things? The ancients used silk as money, but how to ensure the quality of silk? ”

Lan Ziyi sighed:

"What is the use of gold and silver, which are things outside the body, and cannot be eaten with gold or silver in life, and cannot be carried to heaven with treasures when you die? In ancient times, the barbarian chiefs of Xining Prefecture were all strong with gold, in order to win gold and silver, this generation killed and injured each other, the government could not forbid, stabbed Shi Liang Bi took office, invited the chief to the banquet, the chief took gold as a gift, and Liang Bi put gold and silver in front of the table and wept bitterly and said: 'This thing is hungry and inedible, cold and unclothed, you and others will destroy each other, and now you will come here to kill me? And he scattered the silver and gold. The barbarian chieftain was ashamed of this, and since then he has not valued gold and silver but grain. At that time, the Southern Liang world was extravagant, everyone regarded Jinbao as precious and did not store grain, Hou Jing was in chaos, Jianye ran out of food, tired families starved to death, and when he died, he still held gold and jade in his arms, but what was the use of gold and jade? Can I buy food?

It's just that in today's world, the people are ignorant, only greedy for the profits of gold and silver, and don't know that gold and silver are useless! If everyone in the world does not regard Jinbao as the precious, but the cotton grain, the world is not peaceful! ”

The Tao brothers nodded their heads when they listened to Lan Ziyi's generous discussion, but it was just that his high-minded talk stimulated Cao Jinbao fiercely, although there was Lan Ziyi's previous warning, Cao Jinbao still shook his head and sneered, and said mockingly:

"'Gold and silver are not born money, but money is born gold and silver'! As long as there are people in this world, there will be buying and selling, there will be currency, people will choose gold and silver if they need money, not that people are greedy for gold and silver, and it is not that gold and silver are useless, but that the people need a unified market and a strong and credible currency. But what are I, the people of Taisho, using now? It is not the copper coins that have been handed down from ancient times to the present, nor the silk silk unique to Taisho, nor the grain you are talking about, but silver, which is the silver brought by the whole ship when foreigners and us do business! It's a shame that foreigners' eagles can circulate in my Taisho! ”

Lan Ziyi saw that Cao Jinbao was unhappy, and he said:

"I don't know what kind of natural currency you are talking about, and I don't know why Yingyang can't use the same silver, I only know that if it weren't for the lure of you profiteers, how would the people be greedy for gold and silver, and not know how to cultivate!"

Cao Jinbao smiled bitterly:

"Yes, that's right, Shinong Industry and Commerce, we merchants will always be the ninth class, and the people don't farm because we resell goods, so that people know that there are ways to make money without facing the loess and turning their backs to the sky; The rebellion of the Quartet was also because we traveled everywhere to spread news to the world, disturbing the hearts of the people in the stagnant waters of the village community. When will you, the protégés of the saints, understand that history is progressive, and that the future is not the same as the past. You are clinging to the remnants all day long, thinking about the prosperity of the Three Emperors and the rule of Yao Shun, do you have to retreat to neighboring countries to look at each other, the voices of chickens and dogs are heard by each other, and the people are willing to go to small countries and widows who do not get along with each other until they are old and dead? When will you be able to face up to the logic of the market and the monetary economy? ”

Lan Ziyi was furious when he heard this, but Lan Ziyi didn't know that more than half of his anger was because he couldn't understand the fresh words that Cao Jinbao had never heard of in his mouth, he slapped the saddle, pointed at Cao Jinbao and scolded, and Tao Zhuhu next to him was in a hurry to hold the horse for him so that he didn't let him be overturned to the ground. Lan Ziyi scolded:

"You profiteer, you just think you are smart, and you dare to insult the Holy Gate! Spread heresy! You are so unrighteous but you still have to make up a set of nonsense to excuse yourself, are you so smart! ”

Originally, the chats of several people were whispered before, but the dispute between Cao Jinbao and Lan Ziyi just now turned into a roar in front of the public, and the accompanying team even looked over with the surrounding people. Lan Ziyi was angry for a while and attracted attention, and when he saw that the people around him looked at him, he couldn't get off the stage, so he turned around and said:

"Boss Cao, I have other things to do today, so I won't go to the banquet with you, and I will leave."

But how could Cao Jinbao lack Lan Ziyi's help now? He immediately put down his posture and apologized to Lan Ziyi:

"Wei Hou stayed, I was impulsive just now, I said the wrong thing, I haven't read a few sage books, and crooked reasoning and heresy are easy to get into my head, Lord Wei Hou has a lot, for the sake of my friendship with the acting father, Wei Hou will forgive me."

Lan Ziyi snorted coldly:

"What if Boss Cao has a relationship with my father? I don't believe that my father would insult a saint in public by you, and I don't believe that my father would allow you to be clever! ”

Saying that Lan Ziyi was about to leave, Cao Jinbao had to turn his horse's head and chase after him, so he kept Lan Ziyi three times in a row and returned to Cao Jinbao's team. Due to the conflict just now, the atmosphere of everyone after returning to the team this time was very embarrassing, Lan Ziyi and Cao Jinbao no longer spoke, and the team walked very dullly.

Although Lan Ziyi was angry just now, he listened to Cao Jinbao's words, and now that he calmed down, the more Lan Ziyi thought about it, the more he felt that Cao Jinbao's banknotes were widely implicated. So after being silent for a long time, he asked Cao Jinbao:

"Boss Cao, I think about it, why doesn't the imperial court print your own banknotes instead of borrowing your banknotes? If I tell the court about the way you said to print money, the court won't need you. ”

Cao Jinbao breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw Lan Ziyi take the initiative to talk, he didn't dare to make a gesture this time, he only dared to say cautiously:

"I'm not afraid of the imperial court printing money, because the imperial court only prints possible treasure money, and that thing can't be used."
